6/1/1908 - First place feels good
First place, the best offense in the league, and the best pitching staff in the league. It almost is starting to feel like we could win a World Series with this team.
I'm having second thoughts on Ralph Glaze, maybe he isn't quite worth Ty Cobb, but he is developing into a heck of a player. I guess historical bias can be a bad thing, especially with recalc off. Hopefully he can keep pitching like he has been.
I'm still worried about being a starter short, but maybe not, maybe we are in good shape. We'll see what June brings.
